PresidentAwesome's Journal, 12 March 2013

The time has come to make some monumental life changes. I am currently looking at options for bariatric surgery and need to get back in the habit of recording everything that I eat to help solidify a case for the insurance company.

Had a very emotional meeting yesterday going over the psychological effects of what happens to you after such dramatic weight-loss. It seems almost like a Faustian deal but considering my family history and what is waiting for me if I don't do this, it seems my options are to make a deal with the devil and suffer tremendously to be pretty much reborn, or be dead before 60.

We are discussing the possibility of my wife having the surgery with me. They say that 80% of marriages fall apart after the surgery but the risk would be lower if both of us do it together. Mostly jealousy issues and the potential for things like affairs that didn't exist before. They say that risk will be lower if we both go through this together. Pretty much, we had an atomic bomb dropped on us as we hadn't even considered my wife having the surgery done, but now we've got much to consider.
